Dessert Tacos

I used the stand n stuff tacos by Old El Paso.  Use regular flour tortillas too.  Could even be dessert tostadas.

Let’s start by brushing the inside of each shell with melted butter.

    Hi there! These look amazing and I think they’re delicious too but… I see you took these kind of boat-sell-“tortillas”. Here Mexico, when you fill a toasted or fried tortilla with any kind or food we call it TOSTADA.
    Not a Taco or Tortilla anymore: Tostadas.
    Just a comment.
    Love your recipies.

    Love these little shells as they are a big improvement on soft tacos or taco salads…perfect size! Easy to pick up and eat too. To use them for simple, sweet desserts is genius.

    What a neat little product. I like that you jazzed it up. Reminds me of dessert nachos.

  6. Erin @ Simple, Sweet & Savory

    I’ve never seen these shells before, and I love the idea of tacos for dessert. Thanks for sharing!

  7. Annie @ Annie's Noms
